Description
ASSOCIATE PASTOR ROLE DESCRIPTIONBRIEF DESCRIPTION
The Associate Pastor is a non-ordained pastoral leader at Sandals Church entrusted with the spiritual health, operational excellence, and strategic growth of their assigned campus. By balancing shepherding care with high-level organizational leadership, this role creates and maintains environments where people can be real with self, others, and God.
PURPOSE
The role of Associate Pastor exists to recognize and affirm a staff member's pastoral calling, character, and work. In this capacity, the Associate Pastor functions fully as a shepherd and leader-utilizing campus operations, volunteer development, and guest experience as their primary ministry field. This title is a developmental step toward pastoral ordination, reflecting the qualifications and spirit of leadership outlined in 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9, Acts 6:3-6, Hebrews 13:17, and 1 Peter 5:1-5.
1. Pastoral Leadership & Shepherding
The title of Associate Pastor represents a pastoral role held while employed and in good standing with Sandals Church. Should employment end or alignment with the expectations of the role be lost, the title and licensing are removed. Individuals may remain in the Associate Pastor role indefinitely.
COMPENSATION INFORMATION:
Pay Range: $23-$31/hour.
We will provide a pay rate that is within our compensation structure and that fits a candidate's qualifications and experience for the job. A wage range posted is not a guarantee of a specific wage for a job offer.
*Sandals Church is both an equal-opportunity employer and a faith-based religious organization. We conduct hiring without regard to race, ethnicity, national origin, citizenship, age, sex, marital status, membership in any labor organization, political ideology, or disability of an otherwise qualified individual. The status of Sandals Church as an equal opportunity employer does not prevent us from hiring staff based on their religious beliefs so that all employees share the same religious commitment which is central to our mission.
